Low Transcoding Performance with Intel i3 6006U and HD520 GPU - Artik1 - 2024-12-07

Hi everyone,
I've recently set up Jellyfin on my system, running Debian with Docker. My setup includes:
  • CPU: Intel i3 6006U (3 "cpus" for the vm)
  • GPU: Intel HD520
  • RAM: 8GB (6GB assigned to the VM)
When transcoding, I only get around 15fps. I checked the performance using
intel_gpu_top and noticed that the GPU usage is low, while  htop shows the CPU running at full capacity.
Any suggestions on how I can improve transcoding performance, especially utilizing the GPU more efficiently?
Thanks in advance!

Code:
Stream #0:0(eng): Video: hevc (Main 10), yuv420p10le(tv, bt2020nc/bt2020/smpte2084), 3840x1608 [SAR 1:1 DAR 160:67], 24 fps, 24 tbr, 1k tbn (default) (original)

The iGPU on 6th gen intel processors are not built for decoding HEVC 10bit/HDR videos.

Switch to an HDR-capable client to avoid transcoding or upgrade your hardware.

Not even 8Bit HDR?

There is no such thing as 8-bit HDR.
